Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of mechanical ventilation on the survival of patients supported with veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) due to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains still a focus of research. METHODS Recent guidelines, randomized trials, and registry data underscore the importance of lung-protective ventilation during respiratory and cardiac support on ECMO. RESULTS This approach includes decreasing mechanical power delivery by reducing tidal volume and driving pressure as much as possible, using low or very low respiratory rate, and a personalized approach to positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) setting. Notably, the use of ECMO in awake and spontaneously breathing patients is increasing, especially as a bridging strategy to lung transplantation. During respiratory support in V-V ECMO, native lung function is of highest importance and adjustments of blood flow on ECMO, or ventilator settings significantly impact the gas exchange. These interactions are more complex in veno-arterial (V-A) ECMO configuration and cardiac support. The fraction on delivered oxygen in the sweep gas and sweep gas flow rate, blood flow per minute, and oxygenator efficiency have an impact on gas exchange on device side. On the patient side, native cardiac output, native lung function, carbon dioxide production (VCO2), and oxygen consumption (VO2) play a role. Avoiding pulmonary oedema includes left ventricle (LV) distension monitoring and prevention, pulse pressure >10 mm Hg and aortic valve opening assessment, higher PEEP adjustment, use of vasodilators, ECMO flow adjustment according to the ejection fraction, moderate use of inotropes, diuretics, or venting strategies as indicated and according to local expertise and resources. CONCLUSION Understanding the physiological principles of gas exchange during cardiac support on femoro-femoral V-A ECMO configuration and the interactions with native gas exchange and haemodynamics are essential for the safe applications of these techniques in clinical practice. Proning during ECMO remains to be discussed until further data is available from prospective, randomized trials implementing individualized PEEP titration during proning.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the effects of APRV and LTV ventilation on pulmonary permeability in severe ARDS.Methods: Mini Bama adult pigs were randomized into the APRV group (n = 5) and LTV group (n = 5). A severe ARDS animal model was induced by the whole lung saline lavage. Pigs were ventilated and monitored continuously for 48 h.Results: Compared with the LTV group, CStat was significantly better (p < 0.05), and the PaO2/FiO2 ratio showed a trend to be higher throughout the period of the experiment in the APRV group. The extravascular lung water index and pulmonary vascular permeability index showed a trend to be lower in the APRV group. APRV also significantly mitigates lung histopathologic injury determined by the lung histopathological injury score (p < 0.05) and gross pathological changes of lung tissues. The protein contents of occludin (p < 0.05), claudin-5 (p < 0.05), E-cadherin (p < 0.05), and VE-cadherin (p < 0.05) in the middle lobe of the right lung were higher in the APRV group than in the LTV group; among them, the contents of occludin (p < 0.05) and E-cadherin (p < 0.05) of the whole lung were higher in the APRV group. Transmission electron microscopy showed that alveolar–capillary barrier damage was more severe in the middle lobe of lungs in the LTV group.Conclusion: In comparison with LTV, APRV could preserve the alveolar–capillary barrier architecture, mitigate lung histopathologic injury, increase the expression of cell junction protein, improve respiratory system compliance, and showed a trend to reduce extravascular lung water and improve oxygenation. These findings indicated that APRV might lead to more profound beneficial effects on the integrity of the alveolar–capillary barrier architecture and on the expression of biomarkers related to pulmonary permeability.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of respiratory failure burden by high hospital mortality. No specific pharmacologic treatment is currently available and its ventilatory management is a key strategy to allow reparative and regenerative lung tissue processes. Unfortunately, a poor management of mechanical ventilation can induce ventilation induced lung injury (VILI) caused by physical and biological forces which are at play. Different parameters have been described over the years to assess lung injury severity and facilitate optimization of mechanical ventilation. Indices of lung injury severity include variables related to gas exchange abnormalities, ventilatory setting and respiratory mechanics, ventilation intensity, and the presence of lung hyperinflation versus derecruitment. Recently, specific indexes have been proposed to quantify the stress and the strain released over time using more comprehensive algorithms of calculation such as the mechanical power, and the interaction between driving pressure (DP) and respiratory rate (RR) in the novel DP multiplied by four plus RR [(4 × DP) + RR] index. These new parameters introduce the concept of ventilation intensity as contributing factor of VILI. Ventilation intensity should be taken into account to optimize protective mechanical ventilation strategies, with the aim to reduce intensity to the lowest level required to maintain gas exchange to reduce the potential for VILI. This is further gaining relevance in the current era of phenotyping and enrichment strategies in ARDS.

Computed tomographic assessment of lung aeration at different positive end-expiratory pressures in a porcine model of intra-abdominal hypertension and lung injury. Intensive Care Med Exp 2021; 9:52.

Abstract
Background Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) is common in critically ill patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. High positive end-expiratory pressures (PEEP) can reverse lung volume and oxygenation decline caused by IAH, but its impact on alveolar overdistension is less clear. We aimed to find a PEEP range that would be high enough to reduce atelectasis, while low enough to minimize alveolar overdistention in the presence of IAH and lung injury. Methods Five anesthetized pigs received standardized anesthesia and mechanical ventilation. Peritoneal insufflation of air was used to generate intra-abdominal pressure of 27 cmH2O. Lung injury was created by intravenous oleic acid. PEEP levels of 5, 12, 17, 22, and 27 cmH2O were applied. We performed computed tomography and measured arterial oxygen levels, respiratory mechanics, and cardiac output 5 min after each new PEEP level. The proportion of overdistended, normally aerated, poorly aerated, and non-aerated atelectatic lung tissue was calculated based on Hounsfield units. Results PEEP decreased the proportion of poorly aerated and atelectatic lung, while increasing normally aerated lung. Overdistension increased with each incremental increase in applied PEEP. “Best PEEP” (respiratory mechanics or oxygenation) was higher than the “optimal CT inflation PEEP range” (difference between lower inflection points of atelectatic and overdistended lung) in healthy and injured lungs. Conclusions Our findings in a large animal model suggest that titrating a PEEP to respiratory mechanics or oxygenation in the presence of IAH is associated with increased alveolar overdistension.

Wavelet Transform Image Enhancement Algorithm-Based Evaluation of Lung Recruitment Effect and Nursing of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome by Ultrasound Image. JOURNAL OF HEALTHCARE ENGINEERING 2021; 2021:8960465. [PMID: 34545301 PMCID: PMC8449728 DOI: 10.1155/2021/8960465] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2021] [Accepted: 08/31/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the application of ultrasound images of lung recruitment (LR) nursing treatment guided by positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). An ultrasound image enhancement algorithm (UIEA) wavelet transform (WT) was constructed, and the soft threshold (ST) and adjacent region average (ARA) were introduced for simulation comparison. In addition, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and running time were undertaken as the evaluation indexes. The WT algorithm was applied to the ultrasound images of 85 ARDS patients before and after PEEP recruitment. The mean artery pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and central venous pressure (CVP), peak inspiratory pressure (Ppeak), mean inspiratory pressure (Pmean), dynamic lung compliance (DLC), PCO2, and PaO2/FiO2 of the patients were recorded before and after the LR. The results showed that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) (19.67 ± 3.15 dB) and PSNR (23.08 ± 2.08 dB) of the images enhanced by the WT algorithm were much higher than those of ST (13.88 ± 2.74 dB and 14.62 ± 1.76 dB, respectively) and ARA (14.96 ± 3.06 dB and 15.11 ± 1.94 dB, respectively), while the running time was in adverse (P < 0.05); the HR and CVP of patients after LR nursing treatment were increased greatly, while the MAP was in the opposite case (P < 0.05); after LR nursing treatment, Ppeak, Pmean, DLC, PCO2, and PaO2/FiO2 of the patient were significantly greater than those before the LR, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). In short, the WT algorithm not only enhanced the quality of ultrasound images but also shortened the running time and improved the processing efficiency. PEEP LR nursing treatment could effectively improve the vascular patency, cardiac ejection capacity, and DLC in patients with ARDS, thereby increasing the airway pressure and maintaining the unobstructed expiration.

Abstract
Rationale: The physiological basis of lung protection and the impact of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during pronation in acute respiratory distress syndrome are not fully elucidated. Objectives: To compare pleural pressure (Ppl) gradient, ventilation distribution, and regional compliance between dependent and nondependent lungs, and investigate the effect of PEEP during supination and pronation. Methods: We used a two-hit model of lung injury (saline lavage and high-volume ventilation) in 14 mechanically ventilated pigs and studied supine and prone positions. Global and regional lung mechanics including Ppl and distribution of ventilation (electrical impedance tomography) were analyzed across PEEP steps from 20 to 3 cm H2O. Two pigs underwent computed tomography scans: tidal recruitment and hyperinflation were calculated. Measurements and Main Results: Pronation improved oxygenation, increased Ppl, thus decreasing transpulmonary pressure for any PEEP, and reduced the dorsal-ventral pleural pressure gradient at PEEP < 10 cm H2O. The distribution of ventilation was homogenized between dependent and nondependent while prone and was less dependent on the PEEP level than while supine. The highest regional compliance was achieved at different PEEP levels in dependent and nondependent regions in supine position (15 and 8 cm H2O), but for similar values in prone position (13 and 12 cm H2O). Tidal recruitment was more evenly distributed (dependent and nondependent), hyperinflation lower, and lungs cephalocaudally longer in the prone position. Conclusions: In this lung injury model, pronation reduces the vertical pleural pressure gradient and homogenizes regional ventilation and compliance between the dependent and nondependent regions. Homogenization is much less dependent on the PEEP level in prone than in supine positon.

Abstract
As exemplified by prone positioning, regional variations of lung and chest wall properties provide possibilities for modifying transpulmonary pressures and suggest that clinical interventions related to the judicious application of external pressure may yield benefit. Recent observations made in late-phase patients with severe ARDS caused by COVID-19 (C-ARDS) have revealed unexpected mechanical responses to local chest wall compressions over the sternum and abdomen in the supine position that challenge the clinician's assumptions and conventional bedside approaches to lung protection. These findings appear to open avenues for mechanism-defining research investigation with possible therapeutic implications for all forms and stages of ARDS.

Abstract
It remains uncertain how best to set positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) for mechanically ventilated patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Among patients on low tidal volume ventilation (LTVV), we investigated if further adherence to the low PEEP/FIO2 (inspired oxygen fraction) table would be associated with better survival compared to nonadherence. Patients with ARDS, admitted directly from the Emergency Department to our 20-bed Medical Intensive Care Unit (ICU) from August 2016 to July 2017, were retrospectively studied. To determine adherence to the low PEEP/FIO2 table, PEEP and FIO2 12 h after ICU admission were used, to reflect ventilator adjustments by ICU clinicians after initial stabilization. Logistic regression was used to analyze hospital mortality as an outcome with adherence to the low PEEP/FIO2 as the key independent variable, adjusted for age, APACHE II score, initial P/F ratio and initial systolic blood pressure. 138 patients with ARDS were analysed. Overall adherence to the low PEEP/FIO2 table was 75.4%. Among patients on LTVV, nonadherence to the low PEEP/FIO2 table was associated with increased mortality compared to adherence (adjusted odds ratio 4.10, 95% confidence interval 1.68–9.99, P = 0.002). Patient characteristics at baseline were not associated with adherence to the low PEEP/FIO2 table.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess whether the combination of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH, intra-abdominal pressure ≥ 12 mmHg) and hypoxic respiratory failure (HRF, PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 300 mmHg) in patients receiving invasive ventilation is an independent risk factor for 90- and 28-day mortality as well as ICU- and ventilation-free days. METHODS Mechanically ventilated patients who had blood gas analyses performed and intra-abdominal pressure measured, were included from a prospective cohort. Subgroups were defined by the absence (Group 1) or the presence of either IAH (Group 2) or HRF (Group 3) or both (Group 4). Mixed-effects regression analysis was performed. RESULTS Ninety-day mortality increased from 16% (Group 1, n = 50) to 30% (Group 2, n = 20) and 27% (Group 3, n = 100) to 49% (Group 4, n = 142), log-rank test p < 0.001. The combination of IAH and HRF was associated with increased 90- and 28-day mortality as well as with fewer ICU- and ventilation-free days. The association with 90-day mortality was no longer present after adjustment for independent variables. However, the association with 28-day mortality, ICU- and ventilation-free days persisted after adjusting for independent variables. CONCLUSIONS In our sub-analysis, the combination of IAH and HRF was not independently associated with 90-day mortality but independently increased the odds of 28-day mortality, and reduced the number of ICU- and ventilation-free days.

Influence of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure Titration on the Effects of Pronation in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Comprehensive Experimental Study. Front Physiol 2020; 11:179. [PMID: 32226390 PMCID: PMC7080860 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2020.00179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2019] [Accepted: 02/17/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Prone position can reduce mortality in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), but several studies found variable effects on oxygenation and lung mechanics. It is unclear whether different positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration techniques modify the effect of prone position. We tested, in an animal model of ARDS, if the PEEP titration method may influence the effect of prone position on oxygenation and lung protection. In a crossover study in 10 piglets with a two-hit injury ARDS model, we set the "best PEEP" according to the ARDS Network low-PEEP table (BPARDS) or targeting the lowest transpulmonary driving pressure (BPDPL). We measured gas exchange, lung mechanics, aeration, ventilation, and perfusion with computed tomography (CT) and electrical impedance tomography in each position with both PEEP titration techniques. The primary endpoint was the PaO2/FiO2 ratio. Secondary outcomes were lung mechanics, regional distribution of ventilation, regional distribution of perfusion, and homogeneity of strain derived by CT scan. The PaO2/FiO2 ratio increased in prone position when PEEP was set with BPARDS [difference 54 (19-106) mmHg, p = 0.04] but not with BPDPL [difference 17 (-24 to 68) mmHg, p = 0.99]. The transpulmonary driving pressure significantly decreased during prone position with both BPARDS [difference -0.9 (-1.5 to -0.9) cmH2O, p = 0.009] and BPDPL [difference -0.55 (-1.6 to -0.4) cmH2O, p = 0.04]. Pronation homogenized lung regional strain and ventilation and redistributed the ventilation/perfusion ratio along the sternal-to-vertebral gradient. The PEEP titration technique influences the oxygenation response to prone position. However, the lung-protective effects of prone position could be independent of the PEEP titration strategy.

Abstract
Changes in lung mechanics are frequently inferred from intact-chest measures of total respiratory system mechanics without consideration of the chest wall contribution. The participation of lungs and chest wall in respiratory mechanics has not been evaluated systematically in small animals commonly used in respiratory research. Thus, we compared these contributions in intact-chest mice, rats, and rabbits and further characterized the influence of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Forced oscillation technique was applied to anesthetized mechanically ventilated healthy animals to obtain total respiratory system impedance (Zrs) at 0, 3, and 6 cmH2O PEEP levels. Esophageal pressure was measured by a catheter-tip micromanometer to separate Zrs into pulmonary (ZL) and chest wall (Zcw) components. A model containing a frequency-independent Newtonian resistance (RN), inertance, and a constant-phase tissue damping (G) and elastance (H) was fitted to Zrs, ZL, and Zcw spectra. The contribution of Zcw to RN was negligible in all species and PEEP levels studied. However, the participation of Zcw in G and H was significant in all species and increased significantly with increasing PEEP and animal size (rabbit > rat > mice). Even in mice, the chest wall contribution to G and H was still considerable, reaching 47.0 ± 4.0(SE)% and 32.9 ± 5.9% for G and H, respectively. These findings demonstrate that airway parameters can be assessed from respiratory system mechanical measurements. However, the contribution from the chest wall should be considered when intact-chest measurements are used to estimate lung parenchymal mechanics in small laboratory models (even in mice), particularly at elevated PEEP levels. NEW & NOTEWORTHY In species commonly used in respiratory research (rabbits, rats, mice), esophageal pressure-based estimates revealed negligible contribution from the chest wall to the Newtonian resistance. Conversely, chest wall participation in the viscoelastic tissue mechanical parameters increased with body size (rabbit > rat > mice) and positive end-expiratory pressure, with contribution varying between 30 and 50%, even in mice. These findings demonstrate the potential biasing effects of the chest wall when lung tissue mechanics are inferred from intact-chest measurements in small laboratory animals.

Abstract
The incidence of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) is high and still underappreciated by critical care physicians throughout the world. One in four to one in three patients will have IAH on admission, while one out of two will develop IAH within the first week of Intensive Care Unit stay. IAH is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Although considerable progress has been made over the past decades, some important questions remain regarding the optimal ventilation management in patients with IAH. An important first step is to measure intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). If IAH (IAP > 12 mmHg) is present, medical therapies should be initiated to reduce IAP as small reductions in intra-abdominal volume can significantly reduce IAP and airway pressures. Protective lung ventilation with low tidal volumes in patients with respiratory failure and IAH is important. Abdominal-thoracic pressure transmission is around 50%. In patients with IAH, higher positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) levels are often required to avoid alveolar collapse but the optimal PEEP in these patients is still unknown. During recruitment manoeuvres, higher opening pressures may be required while closely monitoring oxygenation and the haemodynamic response. During lung-protective ventilation, whilst keeping driving pressures within safe limits, higher plateau pressures than normally considered might be acceptable. Monitoring of the respiratory function and adapting the ventilatory settings during anaesthesia and critical care are of great importance. This review will focus on how to deal with the respiratory derangements in critically ill patients with IAH.

Abstract
Arguments continue to swirl regarding the need for and best method of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration. An appropriately conducted decremental method that uses modest peak pressures for the recruiting maneuver (RM), a lung protective tidal excursion, relatively small PEEP increments and appropriate timing intervals is currently the most logical and attractive option, particularly when the esophageal balloon pressure (Pes) is used to calculate transpulmonary driving pressures relevant to the lung. The setting of PEEP by the Pes-guided end-expiratory pressure at the 'polarity transition' point of the transmural end-expiratory pressure is quite relevant to the locale of the esophageal balloon catheter. Its desirability, however, is limited by its tendency to encourage PEEP levels that are higher than most other PEEP titration methods. These Pes-set PEEP values promote higher mean airway pressures and are likely to be unnecessary when small tidal driving pressures are in use. Because high airway pressures increase global lung stress and risk hemodynamic compromise, the Pes-determined PEEP would seem associated with a relatively high hazard to benefit ratio for many patients.
